Umpiring
Whilst generally this year we have had a great season for the Umpires with the focus that has been made, a small few have made their task rather unpleasant. The committee would like to express their sincere apologies to anyone who has had an unpleasant umpiring experience and remind everyone that we are a friendly league and constant derogatory behaviour is both unnecessary and can lead to rounders being awarded against your team. Please start to support the umpire; we all do it to the best of our ability.

Votes Please advise Jan or Wendy (using email address on top of this letter) your votes for the following –
Most promising young player (U18)
Vote for the best umpire (three votes per team please)
Any suggestions wished for consideration for the Chairman’s Trophy.

Presentation Night Tickets from Wendy. Please post / give your cheque to me (payable MHLDRL) with your requirements and I will deliver the tickets.
Please return all trophies to Jan ASAP.

AGM Set for committee 7pm, members 7.30 PM on 07.11.2007 at the Wellington Suite. Resignations and candidates to Jan please.
2007 Season Accounts should be ready for the AGM but the only known outstanding money at close of play was £10 from Kilworth for registration due to Bosworth.

200 Draw £75.00 D. Jones
£40.00 H Varnsverry
£20.00 N. Lee

Umpiring
When umpiring in pairs – please can only one person make the decision. Also, both to keep mobile, moving from the oncoming ball & to 4th post with each part of active play

Rule definitions Still some confusion on a couple of matters but it is nice to see we are all thinking.
Definition of hand. When stumping a post, the ball itself does not need to touch the post, just the hand or any part of the hand holding the ball (hand is below the wrist)
Making a Bad ball good This comment is meant that a batter can ‘make the best’ of a bad ball. Also, that a ball may be bad, but if the batter moves before the ball reaches them, it could be that this will then deem the ball good in the eye of the umpire. I.e. a ball which may fall short when the batter starts at the back of the box. If the batter moves forward a period before the ball arrives, on arrival, the ball may be a good ball.
Runner and scorer. If a runner is stumped out on a post, and a potential scorer is running behind, the scorer must also be stumped out – the stumping will not count for both persons.

Registration Fees
If teams have any more players, please complete the continuation sheets and hand to Flo with fees.
